Magewell’s market-leading USB Capture devices continue to be the gold standard for bringing a single AV signal into software, but online events and presentations often incorporate multiple video sources. USB Fusion lets users combine inputs into engaging presentations without the need for additional switching or mixing tools, while offering the same outstanding ease of use that people expect from Magewell solutions.
Featuring two HDMI inputs and one USB webcam input, USB Fusion lets users switch between 1080p60 HD sources or combine two inputs (picture-in-picture or side-by-side) into one output and bring the result into popular software via its USB 3.0 interface. The device is ideal for houses of worship that wish to combine a camera signal and supporting visuals – such as lyrics displayed from a separate laptop – into a single feed for software-based live streaming.
USB Fusion offers three ways for users to compose and control their presentations. On-device buttons allow users to switch between full-screen sources or select a combined scene layout, while a browser-based web interface offers scene switching, volume adjustments, and device configuration.
The full presentation power of USB Fusion is unlocked through the third control option, the free USB Fusion companion app for iOS and Android tablets. The intuitive app provides expanded layout controls for combining any two of the three input sources, and lets users add pictures, video clips, background music, and handwritten notes into their presentations. Presenters can set up playlists incorporating live video and other media in advance, and record or take screenshots of the combined output onto the hardware’s built-in storage. Annotations also be exported to files for archiving or subsequent sharing.
USB Fusion devices support Windows, Mac, and Linux operating systems and are compatible with standard UVC and UAC specifications, enabling extensive software interoperability and easy, driver-free setup. The device’s HDMI output can loop through an input signal or send the combined scene to a connected display or projector, while an analog audio input lets presenters augment the sources’ embedded audio with narration or music.
